ANATOMY, DESCRIPTIVE AND SURGICAL. The Drawings bj 



H. V. CARTER, M. D., late Demonstrator on Anatomy at St. George's Hospital ; the Dissec- 

 tions jointly by the AUTHOR and DR. CARTER. A new American, from the fifth enlarged 

 and improved London edition. In one magnificent imperial octavo volume, of nearly 900 

 pages, with 465 large and elaborate engravings on wood. Price in cloth, $6 00 ; lea- 

 ther, raised bands, $7 00. (Lately Published.) 



The author has endeavored in this work to cover a -more extended range of subjects than is cus- 

 tomary in the ordinary text-books, by giving not only the details necessary for the student, but 

 also the application of those details in the practice of medicine and surgery, thus rendering it both 

 a guide for the learner, and an admirable work of reference for the active practitioner. The en- 

 gravings form a special feature in the work, many of them being the size of nature, nearly al) 

 original, and having the names of the various parts printed on the body of the cut, in place of 

 figures of reference, with descriptions at the foot. They thus form a complete and splendid series, 

 which will greatly assist the student in obtaining a clear idea of Anatomy, and will also serve to 

 refresh the memory of those who may find in the exigencies of practice the necessity of recalling 

 the details of the dissecting room ; while combining, as it does, a complete Atlas of Anatomy, with 

 a thorough treatise on systematic, descriptive, and applied Anatomy, the work will be found of 

 essential use to all physicians who receive students in their offices, relieving both preceptor and 

 pupil of much labor in laying the groundwork of a thorough medical education. 



Notwithstanding the enlargement of this edition, it has been kept at its former very moderate 

 price, rendering it one of the cheapest works now before the profession. 



From time to time, as successive editions have ap- 

 peared, we have had much pleasure in expressing 

 the general judgment of the wonderful excellence of 

 Gray's Anatomy. Cincinnati Lancet, July, 1870. 



Altogether, it is unquestionably the most complete 

 and serviceable text-book in anatomy that has ever 

 been presented to the student, and forms a striking 

 contrast to the dry and perplexing volumes on the 

 same subject through which their predecessors strug- 

 gled in days gone by. N. Y. Med. Record, June 15, 

 1870. 



To commend Gray's Anatomy to the medical pro- 

 fession is almost as mnch a work of supererogation 

 as it would be to give a favorable notice of the Bible 

 in the religious press. To say that it is the most 

 complete and conveniently arranged text-book of its 

 kind, is to repeat what each generation of students 

 has learned as a tradition of the elders, and verified 

 by personal experience. N T. Med. Gazette, Dec. 

 17, 1870. 



The illustrations are beautifully executed, and ren- 

 der this work an indispensable adjunct to the library 

 of the surgeon. This remark applies with great force 

 to those surgeons practising at a distance from our 

 large cities, as the opportunity of refreshing their 

 memory by actual dissection is not always attain- 

 able. Canada Med Journal, Aug. 1870. 



The work is too well known and appreciated by the 

 profession to need any comment. No medical man 

 can afford to be without it, if its only merit were to 

 serve as a reminder of that which so soon becomes 

 forgotten, when not called into frequent use, viz., the 

 relations and names of the complex organism of the 

 human body. The present edition is much improved. 

 fluUfornia Med. Gazette, July, 1870. 



Gray's Anatomy has been so long the standard of 

 perfection with every student of anatomy, that we 

 need do no more than call attention to the improve- 

 ment in the present edition. Detroit Review of Med. 

 and Pharm., Aug. 1870.
